This Chapter establishes regulations to ensure that sufficient off-street parking and loading facilities are provided for all uses and that parking and loading facilities are properly designed and located to meet the needs of specific uses, and to protect adjacent uses and property.
(Ord. 2456 § 2, 2010)
Every use and structure, including a change, modification, alteration, or expansion of a use or structure, shall provide parking and loading areas in compliance with the provisions of this Chapter. A use shall not be commenced and structures shall not be occupied until improvements required by this Chapter are satisfactorily completed.
(Ord. 2456 § 2, 2010)
A. 
Parking and Loading Spaces to be Permanent. All off-street parking spaces and areas required by this Chapter shall be maintained for the duration of the improvement or use requiring such parking spaces or areas. Such spaces and areas shall be used exclusively for the temporary parking of passenger automobiles or light trucks not exceeding one ton in capacity, and shall not be used for the sale, display for advertisement, or for repair of motor vehicles, except emergency repair, or for the storage or display of any other item unless in conjunction with a seasonal or intermittent use with the approval of a Temporary Use Permit (Chapter 17.540), Special Event Permit, or during construction activities.
B. 
Located on Same Site. Parking and loading facilities shall be located on the same site as the use the facilities serve. However, off-site parking may be permitted subject to the requirements outlined in Section 17.320.025, Alternative Parking Provisions.
C. 
Located Off-Street. All parking and loading facilities required by this Chapter shall be provided off-street and shall not be located within any public street, sidewalk, alley, or parkway, unless expressly allowed by other provisions of this Title.
D. 
Unimproved Areas. Portions of a parking area not improved for parking or loading facilities or needed for vehicular circulation shall be landscaped in compliance with plans approved by the City.
E. 
Nonrequired Parking. Where off-street parking space(s) are provided but not required by this Chapter, such parking spaces shall comply with the standards specified for required parking spaces.
F. 
Maintenance. All off-street parking facilities shall be maintained at all times in a clean, orderly, and safe condition.
(Ord. 2456 § 2, 2010; Ord. 2478 § 2, 2011)
Each use shall provide at least the minimum number of parking spaces required by this Section.
A. 
Parking Requirements by Land Use. Each land use shall be provided the number of parking spaces required by Table 3-5, Parking Requirements by Land Use, except where a greater number of spaces are required through a Conditional Use Permit or other permit approval.
B. 
Basis for Calculations. In any case where Table 3-5 establishes a parking requirement based on the floor area of a use in a specified number of square feet (e.g., 1 space per 350 square feet), the floor area shall be construed to mean gross floor area. Where any fractional number of parking spaces is required for residential uses, only the fractional number shall be rounded up to the next whole number.
C. 
Multitenant Sites. In the case of mixed uses or occupancies, the total number of required off-street parking spaces shall be the sum of the number required for each use, except that:
1. 
Offices, retail businesses, and eating and drinking establishments businesses within a retail shopping center shall comply with the parking space requirements for the shopping center as a whole as provided in Table 3-5.
2. 
The site qualifies for shared parking in compliance with Section 17.320.025(B), Shared Parking.
D. 
Nonresidential Change of Use, Expansion of Structure
1. 
When the use of a structure changes to a use that is required by Table 3-5 to have the same number of parking spaces as the immediately previous use, no additional parking spaces shall be required for the new use, provided that the previous use was legally established and the number of spaces has not decreased.
2. 
When the floor area of an existing structure is increased, additional parking spaces shall be provided on-site as required by this Chapter for the additional floor area.
3. 
When a change in use requires more off-street parking than the previous use, additional parking spaces shall be provided equivalent to the difference between the number of spaces required by this Chapter for the immediately previous use and the total number required by the new use.
E. 
Uses Not Listed. Parking for land uses not specifically listed in Table 3-5 shall be provided based on the most similar use in the table as determined by the Director.
F. 
Bench, Pew, or Bleacher Seating. Where fixed seating is provided in the form of benches, pews, or bleachers, a seat shall be construed to be not less than 18 inches of continuous bench space for the purpose of calculating the number of required parking spaces.

Where conditions preclude the provision of the number of required parking spaces on the lot for which the parking is required, the following procedures for alternative parking are available, subject to City approval.
A. 
Off-Site Parking. The use of off-site parking to satisfy the requirements outlined in Table 3-5 shall be provided in compliance with the following standards.
1. 
Location. Off-street parking on an adjacent lot used in conjunction with said uses shall be located within 300 feet of the entrance of the primary building(s).
2. 
Terms of off-site parking. A City-approved covenant shall be recorded that includes a description of the off-site parking, a requirement that the owner of the separated lot maintain the required parking for the life of the use to which it is covenanted, and a provision for liquidated damages for violations of the conditions of approval.
3. 
Loss of off-site spaces.
a. 
Notification to the City. The owner or operator of a business that uses approved off-site space to satisfy the parking requirements of this Chapter shall immediately notify the Director of any change of ownership or use of the property for which the spaces are required, and of any termination or default of the agreement between the parties.
b. 
Effect of termination of agreement. Upon notification that a lease for required off-site parking has terminated, the Director shall determine a reasonable time in which one of the following shall occur:
i. 
Substitute parking is provided that is acceptable to the Director; or
ii. 
The size or capacity of the use is reduced in proportion to the parking spaces lost.
B. 
Shared Parking. Two or more nonresidential uses shall be allowed to meet the parking requirements of this Chapter by sharing the same off-street parking facilities, subject to the approval of an Administrative Use Permit and the following conditions:
1. 
The shared parking spaces may be located on the same parcel or two or more parcels;
2. 
A parking demand study prepared by a licensed traffic engineer and approved by the Director is submitted which finds that:
a. 
The uses which are proposed to be served by the parking have traffic-generation characteristics that justify the expectation that adequate parking will be available, or
b. 
That the characteristics and proximities of the businesses are such that multiple-destination trips would be expected to occur, which would reduce the number of spaces required; and
3. 
All parties to a shared parking arrangement granted under this Section, shall enter into a covenant with the City which shall be recorded in the Office of the County Clerk/Recorder. This covenant shall bind this parking arrangement until such time that it can be demonstrated, to the satisfaction of the Director, that other off-street parking has been provided in compliance with the Westminster Municipal Code requirements, or that the use that necessitated the arrangement has ceased or has been altered so as to no longer require the recorded off-street parking.
(Ord. 2456 § 2, 2010)
A. 
Access to Parking Areas and Parking Spaces. All commercial, industrial, and residential off-street parking spaces shall have access to a public street or alley, and shall be located in parking facilities that are provided with safe internal circulation, entrances, exits, drives, and aisles consistent with City standards.
